Over the last decade the number of foreign travelers to India is on the rise. This is not only for the increasing business opportunities, but also because of India being a popular destination for medical tourism, rural tourism, heritage tourism, pleasure tourism and adventure tourism. According to the tourism ministry, 4.4 million tourists visited India in 2010 and as the trend continues the demand is expected to soar to approximately 10 million!!! The World Travel and Tourism Council data says India ranks 18th in business travel and will be among the top 5 in this decade. All this indicates the growing need of professionals in the Hospitality Industry. The manpower requirements of this industry were about 7 million in 2002 but were estimated to increase to above 15 million by the end of 2011.
In the current scenario then, trained and skilled professionals are the need of the hour. It is to meet this need and also give an opportunity to students from the rural belt of Thane District to enter this profession, that Aldel Education Trust has started the ‘St. John College of Humanities and Sciences’ (SJCHS). At this Institute we offer the three-year B.Sc. (Hospitality Studies) program of University of Mumbai.
St. John Technical Education Complex is located at Palghar which falls in the rural and coastal belt of Palghar District, Maharashtra With its beautiful beaches and serene atmosphere this is a accepted destination and houses several resorts and hotels.
At SJCHS holistic development of every student will be ensured. Competency in skills and a dimensional progress is what we expect from our students to make them gainfully employable. With trainings and internships the Institute desires to let students get hands on experience of the curriculum and thus prepare them for the Industry.
I wish every student joining SJCHS a bright and prosperous career.
Welcome to Aldel Education Trust’s St. Johns College of Humanities and Sciences. We are a blended caring community where students’ well-being is a priority and where both, traditional and modern educational values are respected and encouraged to coexist.
We need to ride the wave of change, especially with the introduction of NEP 2020, build momentum, spring board on our past success and embrace new ambitions for the future. At the core of all of this is the real and sustainable development, which must become a living reality, be it our students, teachers, parent body, the community associated with St. John’s and beyond.
Our highly qualified and dedicated teachers are deeply passionate about providing high-quality education through research and skill enhancement. Our support staff go an extra mile to ensure that our students coming from various social strata of life are secured in more than one ways inside the campus.
With the state of the art infrastructure coupled with our rich program of co-curricular and extracurricular provision and with the unstinted support of the management we provide opportunity for students to develop and flourish in all spheres of life and academia, where they can develop key life skills including confidence, teamwork and leadership.
Being a High Performance Learning community, our students learn in an environment where everyone matters, everyone succeeds and no one is left behind. I assure my students and parents that I will continue to ‘be proactive, begin with the end in mind, put first things first, think win-win, seek first to understand and then to be understood. For me, SJCHS must stand in the ranks of world class colleges, where students are equipped with knowledge, skills and confidence to thrive in a challenging international environment where those who succeed take risks and continually pursue improvement.
As the Principal of SJCHS I am delighted to welcome you all into a college that values the importance of trust, respect, innovation, team work and a deep sense of community service.
